In 2012, the Fuente companies celebrated 100 years of hard work, dedication and family tradition. When the Fuente companies was established in 1912, Arturo Fuente would have never dreamed his passion for cigars would become a global benchmark for the cigar industry. He started his company with humble beginnings, rolling and blending cigars in the back of his house with his wife Cristina and two sons, Carlos and Arturo Oscar. Four generations later, the company is still family-owned and operated in the Dominican Republic.
From the very beginning the focus of making a Fuente cigar was quality; quality tobacco, quality craftsmanship, and taking the time necessary to make a truly remarkable cigar. "We don't hurry things; we just do things the way they are supposed to be done." says Carlos Fuente Sr.
100 years later, a burning passion for cigars continues to inspire the Fuente family. As they pass down to their children the culture and traditions of Arturo Fuente, the Fuente family will continue to make the world's finest cigars for generations to come.
Product Detail
The Hemingway range was created by Arturo Fuente to pay tribute to the famous writer Ernest Hemingway, a great cigar smoker. The Cameroon wrapper and the choice of filler tobacco result in a smooth and voluptuous cigar. The Best Seller is a magnificent Perfecto whose rolling requires obvious talent. The Perfecto shape offers a very progressive smoking experience. Very smooth in the first part then the power gradually increases. A cigar that can be smoked in less than an hour and will leave an excellent impression on the smoker who is not looking for too much power and a lot of evolution during smoking.
